The police wanted Høiby to remain in prison, partly because of the risk that Høiby would contact the so-called Frogner woman again, who they believe is present.
Høiby, for his part, said that the risk of recurrence is not present "at all."
– Both NN and I have moved on, he says of the Frogner woman and adds:
– I have not appealed anything related to her case, not because I agree with everything in that judgment, but because I do not want to have any more contact with her or go through it again.

I’m very confused. I thought he was sentenced to 4 years?
Just copy-pasting my explanation from the last post: he won’t be at home with the ankle monitor for the next four years, only the next four weeks. He appealed his sentence, so the case is still ongoing, he’s still on remand and hasn’t begun serving his sentence yet.
You can only be held on remand for four weeks at a time, and then the police have to ask the court to extend it, which is what happened here – the court then decided he could be on remand at home with the ankle monitor (I assume because of Mette-Marit’s health). The police can appeal this decision, and they have until tomorrow at noon to do so. So even if he’s released, this is only for the next four weeks and he may be back in prison in a month.
